WSU DNP

Nursing Students School Programs

Published

I applied to (Washington State University) WSU's DNP class for Fall 2017. I was wondering if anyone else did? Or does anyone currently attend their graduate school? It says it is mostly online and I was wondering how it is structured, admissions is not very forth-coming with information.

I got in as well to the psych dnp Vancouver campus. I live in Portland so in order to get in state tuition I can only take 8 credits a semester so it would take much longer to complete the program. Is anyone else doing this? Is anyone planning on going to school very part time and working full time?

Congratulations! I am a current ABSN student researching WSU's DNP FNP program. Do you mind sharing your gpa and/or helpful tips? Thank you!

I actually just now saw this, sorry about that. I actually am in the same boat! I am hoping to find a job in Spokane because I was previously living there. I currently live/work in Puyallup but applied to Spokane campus and was accepted to the FNP.

As for my GPA/background, I have no problem sharing. I'm not from the PNW originally, my degree is from a school in the south. I started as a med/surg nurse in Florida and then became a travel nurse, my GPA is a 3.8 for my BSN. I wandered to WA and never left, I love this place. I will however be paying out of state tuition because my "home of record for taxes" is not WA.

I did a fair amount of emailing with WSU asking questions when I was applying because I was unsure how competitive I was. I do recommend applying to at least 2 or 3 schools. I have friends from undergrad that only applied to one and weren't accepted, so they had a wait a full year to re-apply. I also used rankings, I didn't apply to UW because I know my GRE score wasn't high enough and they're in the top 10 every year for nursing. I actually went to nursing school with a woman who graduated with a 4.0 and came in with a 4.0. She was denied admission to UW's nursing school as an undergrad, her experience did not inspire faith that I would be accepted into their graduate program (that to me is a crazy competitive undergrad program)! I saved myself the money and applied to other programs.
